Sturgill Simpson

Grammy award-winning singer-songwriter Sturgill Simpson brings his defiant country music act to Charleston in support of his latest album, Sound & Fury (September 2019), which takes its name from the famous line in Shakespeare’s Macbeth and William Faulkner’s great Southern novel The Sound and the Fury. Heavily influenced by Merle Haggard and Willie Nelson, the Kentucky native’s rocking, slightly psychedelic melodies combined with his twangy tone and biting lyrics have won him critical acclaim, if not full acceptance by Nashville’s establishment. Fellow Kentuckian Tyler Childers opens. North Charleston Coliseum, 5001 Coliseum Dr., North Charleston. Tuesday, 7:30 p.m. Ticket prices vary. (843) 529-5000, www.northcharlestoncoliseumpac.com
